<p>With <glossary>AutoComplete</glossary>, Money saves you time as you enter transactions by filling in names you've typed before as soon as you type the first few letters. Money keeps a list of the <glossary tNum="287059">payees</glossary>, <glossary tNum="286964">categories</glossary>, <glossary tNum="286967">classifications</glossary>, and amounts you enter. It offers a name as soon as it recognizes an unambiguous match to the first few letters you type.</p>
<p>For example, you might record transactions with different payees, such as Lisa Walters, Dora Lee, and Dave White. When you enter a new transaction and type "Da" in the Payee field, Money will suggest Dave White as the payee name. If you type "L", Money will suggest Lisa Walters.</p>
<p>When Money suggests a name, you can either accept it or continue typing a new one. The new name you type will be added to Money's list.</p>
<p>If you accept the suggestion, Money will automatically fill in the category and amount of the last transaction involving that payee. You can override Money's suggestions at any time by entering new information.</p>
